Book Description Forgotten Books, United States, 2015. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 229 x 152 mm. Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from The Aboriginal Races of North America: Comprising Biographical Sketches of Eminent Individuals, and an Historical Account of the Different Tribes; From the First Discovery of the Continent to the Present Period; With a Dissertation on Their Origin, Antiquities, Manners and Customs, Illustrativ Owing to the destruction of the stereotype plates of this work by fire, on the night of the 30th of September, 1835, I was under the necessity of going over the whole ground again. The plates had but just been completed, and a small edition taken off, when that calamity befell them. After having the work stereotyped, I intended that additions to all future editions should be appended to the ends of the several books, which were paged separately on that account; and, although I have revised the whole throughout, and made additions in almost every page, yet I thought it best to adhere to my original plan of paging each book by itself, to accommodate future additions, should it be thought advisable to make any. The amount of reading on a page of the former editions was nearly equal to two common octavo pages, yet the page of the present has been very considerably enlarged, thereby vastly increasing the amount of information in the same number of pages. Parts of the work have been rewritten, and many facts, which were before noticed out of their natural order, have been inserted in their proper places. For the kind hints of friends, by which the work has been benefitted, I return them many thanks. My acknowledgments are especially due to one, who, two years since, unsolicited, furnished me with some of the most important documents upon the affairs of the modern Creek Indians. It is to the same gentleman I dedicate this edition of the work. Extract from the Preface to the Third and Fourth Editions. Those unacquainted with the nature of such undertakings may complain that we should publish before we had filled up all vacancies in our documents, and hence have been able, not only to have been completely full upon every head, but at the same time to have given a more continuous narrative of the whole. This object, could it have been attained, would have been as gratifying to the author as to the reader. But we can assure all such as are disposed to censure us upon this score, that, had they been obliged to turn over, compare, examine and collate one fourth as many volumes and defaced records as the author has in compiling Indian Biography, they would abandon their censures by the time they had well entered upon their labors.
